Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Armani Eau Pour Homme EDT
A legendary, classic Italian citrus that has sadly been butchered by reformulations. The vintage is a sophisticated, masculine scent embodying timeless elegance, while modern versions struggle to capture its original magic.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Vol d'Hirondelle EDP
If you're after a juiced-up version of Hermès' Un Jardin en Méditerranée, this is it. While some might find it a bit safe, it delivers a complex, long-lasting citrus hit that's hard to beat and sure to impress.
